Paul wrote:
The last time I checked, we were under Grace and not the Law...Just straining a gnat through a hypocritical sieve. Alright! Now we don't have to worry about all that having no other gods, taking His name in vain, adultery, etc. We are not under MORAL LAW! Thanks Paul! Oh...wait...maybe the apostle was talking about a different division of the Law? Maybe he was talking CEREMONIAL. No one has EVER been under Law (moral or ceremonial) as a covenant of works for salvation except for Adam (and he only up until the fall.) You should be careful- accusing those who obey the New Testament establishment of Sunday keeping of being hypocrites-not wise. Remember what Jesus said when he was accused of being of Beelzebub when he cast out demons? Mind your way, Paul.
Mark 16:8-10
Luke 24:1
Acts 20:7
Acts 20:6-8
1 Corinthians 16:2
Revelation 1:10
Crazy coincidence how Jesus and all the apostles moved their observance of Saturday keeping to Sunday keeping. Follow the pattern. Setting aside his Day for an idolatrous "Mass" day or any other is a major problem based on His Word. |

I did the comparison there wasn,t much different.Dont be fooled by his adding of almighty god only? Id ask first who is he (GW)refering to when he says Almighty God Freemasonary will say Almighty God but they are refering to the devil! Why dont they use the Name which is ABOVE every name Jesus the maker of all things!
As a note I thought obama was a christian when I went into my liberal christian book store there was a 100 books right when you walk in "Faith of Obama" 
Was it 2 Tril?
Frank some will disagree not to be disagreable but as you will apply those verses and be right so too those who point to other priciples in the Word that comand us to uphold all truth and this priciple Ps 33:12 All the best brother.  Can you have two rights? Spot on & thanks for bringing this up. Many of the founders worshiped "Great Architect of the Universe" their "god." Washington & so many others were antichristian occultists. The custom of the Masonic Orders is to accommodate to any such religious terms in order to present the esoteric wisdom orders so "Almighty God" is just fine. To them it is just their "Great Architect" that binds all religions in one. |

Psalms Only wrote:
Psalm 72:20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
The word translated "prayers" here is "tephillah" (Tefiliah)
"Tefiliah, Hebrew for prayer, incorporates the Jewish Amidah prayer, the Sephardim, the Prayer Book, and is one of the many terms, especially most common in the Bible, for prayer in general. The Hebrew root means "to think, entreat, judge, intercede," and the reflective means "to judge oneself" and "to pray." Prayer in the Bible is both individual and corporate, with the Psalms containing both as well as being embedded in both Temple and sanctuary ritual." (Ox Dic of Religions)
Original Word: תְּפִלָּה
Transliteration: tephillah
Phonetic Spelling: (tef-il-law')
Short Definition: prayer
"The tephillah or song-prayer is a prayer of intercession or supplication expressed in song. The Hebrews of I see the point- taken. Thanks to both you and Jessica and Mike. |

I'm tired, I'm just a head injured crippled woman, I'll leave the exegesis on this to someone else. Again, i'm so sorry to hear about that wound. Oh, and I meant to express my condolences and prayers for your wayward son. Oh, Jessica, that is so sad! May God bless him with repentence and comfort a mother's heart! Blessings on that, sister. |

The Paul The Apostle wrote:Ephesians 5:19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;What The Apostle Paul did not write:Speaking to yourselves in psalms and psalms and psalms, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
The Paul The Apostle wrote: Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
What The Apostle Paul did not write:
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and psalms and psalms, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. While this may seem clever, it is ultimately wanting. I'll let you tell us- what is a "hymn" &what is a "spiritual song?" Are the Eph &Col passages instruction for public worship, based on the context? What did God mean when he said, Ex. 34:7 "7Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity &transgression &sin..." Do we have to seek separate forgiveness for iniquity, than we do for transgression and sin, etc? Exodus 1:7 "the children of Israel were fruitful, &increased, &multiplied." What does that me |

[URL=http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2017&version=KJV]]]Psalm 17 KJV[/URL]
Psalm 61:1 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
Psalm 25:2 O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
Jesus repeated Psalm 22:1a on the cross: "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
Psalm 30:2 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
The Psalms and prayers are equated, all through The Psalms, are examples of godly prayers. ~Shalom To say, "hear my prayer" is that the same as saying "this is my prayer?" Were I to pray a prayer and then immediately sing later but separately in accord with it, "hear it," that still allows for there to be two distinct elements. Do they in substance do much the same thing? Sure, but does a psalm = prayer? I'm not convinced. Can we pray the Psalms? I believe so, I don't believe that is out of proper use. Nor do I believe it is wrong to quote them without singing them. Thanks for considering this with me, and likewise, peace from our Lord. Oh, btw, sorry to hear about the situation from earlier with your injury. Prayers for you! |

Alex, I must respectfully disagree. Yes, Psalms is a book of song praise. It is also a book of prayer. That is plain. Yet we do not use the same exclusivism and pray only the Psalms. Whence cometh the dichotomy? Mike wrote:

Whence cometh the dichotomy? I appreciate your respect in the disagreement, but the Scripture denominates various parts of worship- song and prayer are not interchangeable, they are separate parts. The dichotomy is from God. The Psalms are not prayers and prayers are not Psalms in the strictest sense, Biblically speaking. I would welcome any proof to the contrary. Would you show me in Scripture where the one is equated to the other? |

Mike, you say, "Inclusion of Davids music in Scripture should not be taken as a signal for an exclusivist position. When we pray, do we use only prayers found in Scripture, or do we speak from our own hearts? I cannot find biblical support to view music differently." The point is, God commands us many times in Scripture to sing praises etc (almost always in the Psalms) &then gives us the book to sing them from. Had God anywhere in Scripture said, "as believers you have the gift of hymns, psalms &spiritual songs. Therefore compose them & sing them in worship," I would be a vocal cheerleader. The fact is, He doesn't! Praying &singing are 2 separate subjects- to say 'since the one, therefore the other' doesn't logically follow. But, if God had given a book of prayers for the church &never given a command to compose/recite our own as a general command to all believers, I would be a vocal cheerleader of reciting ONLY Bible prayers. As it is, He only gives us general guidelines for prayer &allows for us as believers to prayer accordingly. I'm sure "offer[ing] praise from [their]own heart[s] &mouth[s]," was what Nadab &Abihu assumed they were doing. "God's Aaronic/Mosaic orders might lead us into 'vain repetition.' Let's offer this strange fire to the Lord!" Right from the heart? |

Mike wrote:
One might be led to think the Lord is well-pleased when a man refuses to pray or offer praise from his own heart and mouth, but instead repeats the words from the heart and mouth of another. Rosary anyone? Help me understand what you mean. Are you saying that one cannot sing the Psalms as a legitimate form of "offer[ing] praise from his own heart and mouth?" And are you seriously going so far as to compare singing Psalms to that of incanting Roman idolatry?! Incidentally, your original proposition is self defeating (if I understand you correctly.) If singing the Psalms is wrong because they were written by another person (David & other prophets), therefore disabling the singer from "pray[ing] or offer[ing] praise from his own heart and mouth," then it is equally wrong to sing songs written by other men ie. modern/ancient hymn writers (presuming you support man made hymnody.) I really genuinely hope I am misunderstanding you. |
